Air Induction System

Air enters a dry-type engine air cleaner (ACL) (9600) and travels through a pleated, chemically treated, water resistant paper air cleaner element (ACL element) (9601) to remove contaminants before entering the engine induction system. The 7.3L DI turbo diesel engine also uses a pleated-paper upright type element. Use of other than specific Ford replacement filters may result in significantly shortened filter life and consequent dirt injection.
